ACHIEVE
“Lack of direction, not lack of time, is the problem. We all have twenty-four hour days.”
MAKE SHIT HAPPEN
This world isn't fair and it isn't easy. You will fail often. If you want something you're gonna need to make shit happen.
Decide what you want and beat it into submission.
1. Decide What & When
“The trouble with not having a goal is that you can spend your life running up and down the field and never score.”
Create a vision of your future by deciding what you want in the key areas of your life and when you want it.
Set these priorities knowing that who you are today is not who you will be be tomorrow. Aim beyond high, because nothing significant gets done while majoring in minor things.
2. Determine How
“A goal without a plan is just a wish.”
You need a plan, but it doesn't need to be perfect. It just needs to be a start!
Determine the specific actions you must take. Don't start from scratch. There’s always someone that’s done what you’re wanting to achieve. Model it. Copy it.
Only plan to change stuff you can control. Ignore the rest.
3. Get Going
“Do or do not. There is no try.”
Attack your priorities with urgency and do way more than what the average person would consider reasonable.
These are YOUR priorities. Don't have any second thoughts and don't ask for permission. Roll over anything in your way.
Live in an action "state" by moving and speaking with "don't fuck with me" authority.
Be intense, not tense.
Still procrastinating? Get better goals.
4. Evaluate & Evolve
“I can’t change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.”
Review what’s working and what’s not. Make the necessary changes to get you closer to your goals. Forget about yesterday, focus on what you’re going to do today.
Never, ever give up, overnight success is a myth. Small continuous changes every day will be compounded over time.
Relentlessly acquire new knowledge, learn new skills and become a better version of yourself.
